Keratinocyte exosomal LOC285194 ameliorates psoriasis by inhibiting the differentiation of CD4+T cells to Th17 cells through regulating miR‐211‐5p/SIRT1 axis

Keratinocytes exosome participates in the pathogenesis of psoriasis and exosomes always carry long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) into target cells to function as an essential immune regulator in psoriasis-related diseases. LncRNA LOC285194 is closely associated with the occurrence of psoriasis. However, whether keratinocyte exosomal LOC285194 participates in the process of psoriasis remains vague. Exosomes were authenticated by transmission electron microscope and nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA). Relative gene expression was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Flow cytometry was used to monitor the proportion of immune cells. Fluorescence in situ hybridization was employed to determine the colocalization of lncRNA and miRNA. Keratinocyte exosomal LOC285194 was reduced in psoriasis patients and had a negative association with Th17 cell infiltration in psoriasis patients. LOC285194-downregulation contributed to the differentiation of CD4
